Now that you know girls like mysterious guys, how can you become one of them? Basically, being mysterious means standing out from the crowd.

Also, it's important to be mysterious in a positive way. Some types of mysteriousness make women want to run in the opposite direction.

When a man is mysterious, it means there is something you don't know about him. It could be good, could be bad, could be shocking.

The most likely reason is that a man who leaves a woman guessing can't get out of her mind. Therefore, a mysterious man is more interesting and exciting than the average man, and what woman doesn't want that kind of man in her life?

However, at the end of the day, girls stick with guys who are genuinely into them and have a lot more to offer than just looks and money.
